Crenarchaeota

This product is a placeholder only and can not be purchased, but can be used in Blueprints as a product to explain its features and functions.

The Crenarchaeota contains a large and physiologically diverse group of hyperthermophilic, sulfur-metabolizing bacteria from terrestrial and marine hot springs and hydrothermal vents. Growth temperatures can exceed 100 °C where hydrostatic pressure prevents boiling; for example, for the species Pyrolobus fumarii, the optimum temperature is 106 °C. Most Crenarchaeota are anaerobic.
